Devon Air Ambulance

March Meeting

The March meeting saw the members being informed and entertained by Norman Maudsley, who is a volunteer for Devon Air Ambulance, giving talks and helping to raise funds, he himself has managed to raise over £10,000. Norman told how the Charity started, and how the service has improved over the years. He gave us an insight into the work that the service carries out, the training that the people who work for the service receive, and also how important the fund raising is. The talk was very interesting and informative.
